JORIK MOL

He done comedy for longer than he cares to remember and, although not a nerd, had aspirations of one day becoming one, but after realising at the age of seven that cracking MS-DOS is not the same as hacking the Pentagon, he then focused on becoming a stand-up comedian writer and actor, an ambition that has yet to see fruition. He is also Dutch, for which he apologises (Tiendaagse Veldtocht e.d. ), but despite that, he has started to make a name for himself in the UK, where he will be going the morning after this gig. Jorik likes books, miserable indie-folk and makes a mean vegetarian risotto.
